Doubt they have the worldwide appeal.

Put Grohl as a judge on the Voice or American Idol and then they could do it.

nice guy and a smart marketer. He's figured out how to get rich in the post classic rock era. Not many musicians have. Another good move for him and his band to extend their run a little longer.

The original members of "Up With People".

It would be good to check in with them to see if everyone is still so damn happy and upbeat now that they're all in their 60s.

True about time being cruel but I think too many surgeries destroy what were once incredibly hot chicks. It is like the hotter you are, the more surgeries you get, the horrific you become.

put on one of the best half time shows. And I just saw them back in May - they still can rock with the best of them. Would have been a great show.

U2 did the SB after 9-11. They were superb. My son was born that evening - 2/3/02.

They are a great band. Whether you like them or not, it is amazing how they have endured with absolutely zero change to any members, etc.

Just look up some live videos. Even if not your type you can’t deny the talent. And compared to the rest of the trash on the radio these days I’d take them over just about anyone else.

Moreso than Maroon 5? I didn’t “mind” them until they did a song with Cardi B, now they are absolute trash to me. Talk about trash, Cardi B might be one of the worst artists I’ve ever heard.
I group them together,  
Go Terps : 9/19/2018 4:58 pm : link
but that's just not the music I'm into, and I get that everybody's into their own thing.

If we're honest, the SB halftime is a pretty lame gig. It's not high on the list of cool shit to do. I went to the Super Bowl in New Orleans a few years back (the blackout game), and my buddy and I left the stadium during the halftime show (I think it was Beyonce but I'm not sure). It was cringeworthy and we couldn't take it.

What was cool was the marching band that played before the game - I think it was from Southern University. They were fantastic. I think the NFL misses an opportunity to incorporate local musicians into the halftime show. But I guess that wouldn't work for the corporate types.

the lead singer of imagine dragons. Add in their corny, shitty lyrics to make things worse, if that’s even possible. I’d rather listen to Maroon 5 without question and they suck too.
The Foo Fighters would never fly

Again you’ve got to think about garbage you here on the radio until it makes your ears bleed. Overplayed garbage that appeals to the masses from age 15-50 basically. Stuff kids, parents and corporate America all recognize and can sing along too.

Overrated? Is he really considered to be good?

Maroon 5 is one of those bands that does exceedingly well and yet I've never personally met anyone who likes them. They're the Everyone Loves Raymond of music.

I once read an interview of Levine  
santacruzom : 9/20/2018 11:29 am : link
He was asked something along the lines of how he would respond to critics, and he said, "if everybody likes your art, you're fucking doing it wrong."

It was as if he thought those who didn't appreciate Maroon 5 simply couldn't comprehend them, as if their music is challenging in some way.
